Product info about Saint James L'essentiel
Saint James L'Essentiel is a(n) rum from Martinique by the brand Saint James. It falls within the rum group under the category Sugar Cane Juice. It is one of the many references you can currently buy online at Drankenshop Broekmans.
This rum is matured in Bourbon Cask barrels. It is a version of 70 cl and has an alcohol content of 43%.
With a no-age-statement rum, no age is indicated on the bottle. Often producers choose not to disclose age when an older rum is supplemented by younger ones. After all, according to the rules, the age must always be the youngest rum in the blend, which is not desirable when the bulk in the blend is older (and therefore more valuable). Conversely, one can also choose not to mention age, when predominantly young rum is diluted with a small amount of (very) old rum. In that case, the product is often marketed at a higher price, and to justify that high(er) price, a choice is made not to mention an age (which would otherwise be the youngest in the blend).
We have compiled a flavour profile for this Saint James L'Essentiel rum. Of course, taste is very personal, so these parameters mainly serve as a guide to help you figure out what you like so you can discover new things.
The woody, spicy, and also fruity flavours are quite noticeable, but are not dominant. They help determine the flavour, profile and character of this drink but are less decisive than any strong notes present. There are noticeable floral, and also vegetal hints, but these flavours are subtle. They add extra character and depth to this drink, without really pushing it in any particular direction.
Based on this profile, you can conclude that this rum has a fairly pronounced character.
Finally, we have listed some fun facts and answers to frequently asked questions for you about this Saint James L'Essentiel rum:
- This rum has a specific distilling style "Traditional Column".

Why can't I pay with Klarna?
While we did indeed offer this payment method in the past, Klarna was recently removed from our payment tools due to unethical behaviour from this payment provider that we as a company do not support.
Why can't I pay with Paypal?
To our regret, the transaction fees on Paypal payments are so high that we cannot accept this payment method without also passing on a very high transaction fee to our customers.
As we have a fundamental problem with excessively high transaction fees that unnecessarily cost us or our customers, we have made the choice not to accept Paypal transactions on our webshop at present.

Will my product be properly packaged?
All our orders are packed with the utmost care in sturdy cardboard shipping boxes, and filled with environmentally friendly crumpled cardboard to prevent damage to the bottle and packaging. We try to avoid the use of bubble wrap and other plastic as much as possible.
However, certain boxes and tubes are extremely sensitive to any form of packaging, and a package also goes through a lot before it is delivered to your front door. We offer you the assurance of completely flawless packaging in our shop in Zolder.
Can I ask questions about the product specifications?
Our team strives to supplement photos and product specifications with the utmost care and to keep them up-to-date. Unfortunately, this is not always possible, especially for products with a high rotation, products with multiple versions/packaging and products that are released several times under the same name/denominator/barcode, each time with a different lot number or different bottling date. Because the basic product is the same in such cases, we do not make a distinction in our webshop and we deliver what is in stock at that time.
If you are looking for a very specific release of a product, e.g. to supplement your collection, it is best to contact our customer service in advance so that we can physically check this for you before you place your order . This way we prevent disappointment and unnecessary sending of bottles back and forth.
If the product you received does not match the product information that we communicated in advance, you can choose to return this bottle to us and obtain a return label from our customer service.
Why can I only enter a certain number?
In our webshop you can never order more than the quantity that we can immediately deliver from our stock at that time. For larger quantities, please contact our customer service. In addition, exceptionally popular releases can also be limited in number per customer account.
Can I pick up my online order in your shop?
Unfortunately, it is not possible to collect your online order from our shop. This is because the physical processing of online orders does not take place in our shop in Zolder.
In which countries can I have my order delivered?
Because of national excise legislation, each target market in which we operate has a separate webshop environment. You can order on all these environments with one customer account. Prices, delivery costs and ordering conditions differ per target market.
- Delivery in Belgium: www.broekmans.be
- Delivery in the Netherlands: nl.broekmans.be
If you cannot find a separate environment for your country, then we cannot deliver there at the moment.
What are the shipping costs?
On this website, we only ship within Belgium. The following shipping rates for home delivery apply:
- Standard for orders up to €60: €10.99
- Reduced for orders from €60 to €150: €6.99
- Free for orders from € 150 !
If you choose direct delivery to a Post Point or Pakjesautomaat in our checkout, you will also immediately benefit from cheaper shipping rates:
- Standard for orders up to € 60: € 9.99
- Reduced for orders from €60 to €150: €5.99
- Free for orders from €150 !
Purchased gift vouchers and postcards never count towards the order amount, and cannot be cited to claim reduced shipping costs.
If you want delivery in a country other than Belgium, you must visit our website via the custom subsite for that country.
When can I expect my order?
Typically , you will receive your order within 2 to 4 business days, provided there are no unforeseen delays.
What payment options do I have?
At Drankenshop Broekmans, you pay orders up to €5,000 securely online and free of transaction fees via Multisafepay with:
Bank transfer (no transaction fees, but extra processing time of 1 to 3 days, also for an "instant payment")
You choose the desired payment method when completing your order.
Stricter transaction limits may apply to some payment methods to protect your account.
To our regret, the transaction fees on Paypal payments are so high that we cannot accept this payment method without also passing on a very high transaction fee to our customers. As we have a fundamental problem with excessively high transaction fees that unnecessarily cost us or our customers, we have made the choice not to accept Paypal transactions on our webshop at the moment.
As a direct consequence of a number of conflict situations that were handled in a completely unacceptable way, our collaboration with Klarna was terminated with immediate effect to protect our customers from this.
